Tim, I'll see if you're in when I go out there. Have to spend that $20 coupon before Christmas. Going to break down and get a real I've needed for a couple years.

Maybe you can make a flyfisherman out of me.

Whats with this face book, and twitter thing? I can't even text,and I think my life is complete. I've only had a cell phone for maybe 5 years,and a lot of times I can't find it.

From a business point iPhones changed the game. We would have a tough time without smart phones now. Email, texting and sometimes calling is how we do business today. We still use a pager for the tech who is on call for service.

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and our website are ways for us to get exposure and advertise. It's a whole new world that's for sure. When I started in construction no one had cells phones but a few "rich" contractors and they were the type that wired into the car and made the horn blow so you would know your phone was ringing.

i can't imagine not having all my electronics and doing business. At times I wish I never had a cell phone because you can't get away from the office!

You can't get away at all. A lot of places ask you to turn them off while you're there. don't happen. Can't even go to crapper withnout some idiot talking and dumping. Or the dip stick talking at a short light, causing others to catch it. At work I neeed to carry a radio phone, just before I left it was a pager. In many cases it makes for rude behavior, by people who feel they are more important than they are.

No doubt about it cell phones have made driving around town a pain in the buttocks. Go in any store anymore and people are walking around talking on their phones.
When the girlfriends parents are visiting and things have settled into the normal daily routine it's funny how many times I have walked in and everyone is on their iPad reading emails or on Facebook. TV is on but no one is watching it....it's funny because years ago they would comment about others looking at their iPads but they didn't have any. Now it's a different story!!
